The match started with Ole and Gibson squaring off, with Arn
being tagged in soon. Gibson did a fine job, but eventually, Morton came in and
was able to dominate over Arn and Ole. There was a brief lull, in which the
Andersons were able to gather some steam. Though Gibson was dragged around the
ring and worn down for a while, he was able to find a foothold and tag Morton
back in, who got taken down as well. The Andersons remained in control for the
rest of the match, but when Gibson drove a cheap shot to Arn, who had Morton
ready for a slam, causing Morton to fall on his opponent.

Winners: Rock and Roll Express to retain the championship

A good match and a great way to open the card. The Andersons
were in control for nearly all of the match, but Express did get some great
moments. While the ending wasn’t perfect, it didn’t seem forced. 3/5

Ron Garvin vs. Big Bubba Rogers (with Jim Cornette)

Type: Louisville Street Fight

Anything goes anywhere.

Garvin began with a few good shots over Rogers, eventually
bringing him to the floor. Bubba was able to throw Garvin outside the ring
twice. The second time coming back, Garvin tossed water in Bubba’s face and
proceeded to use the distraction to his advantage. While Garvin did go down
after being clocked in the face, he was able to come back up and regain some
advantage over Bubba. After Garvin hit a piledriver, Cornette decided to hit
Garvin and neither man responded to a 10-count. The winner was decided by…
first man to his feet? Of course the referee is distracted when Garvin gets up
and Cornette knocks him back down.

Winner: Big Bubba Rogers

That was an interesting, but good match. Garvin was the
underdog due to not being as big as Bubba, but he was able to hold his own.
Street fight rules were not taken to their full advantage though. I also think
the ending should have been a draw 3/5

Paul Jones vs. Jimmy Valiant (with Big Mama)

Stipulation: Hair vs. Hair

For some reason, Manny Fernandez is locked in a cage above
the ring.

Jimmy Valiant immediately started on Jones when the bell
rang, working all over him in a very methodical manner. Jones was able to bring
Valiant down for a bit and pay him back, but when going for a headlock, Valiant
turned it around.

Winner: Jimmy Valiant

Good match, I think Jimmy Valiant’s gimmick right now is
that he’s just a little off and it’s working well, especially in the beginning.
I do like how Jones was able to control he match in the middle until Valiant
found an opening. 3/5

Before the match even began there was heat. Dillon tried to
put the match in Blanchard’s favor with headgear, which ended up in a push
between him and the referee. Dillon also poked Rhodes, who went after him.

Now for the match itself.

For the early match, there was no real control. Blanchard
kept going for strikes and Rhodes kept taunting Blanchard. Finally, Rhodes was
able to headbutt Blanchard and exert some sort of domination. The referee gets
hit twice and Rhodes continues beating up Blanchard, resulting in blood, but
the referee is unable to see it. It gets cleared up and Blanchard throws blood
in Rhodes’ face, which the referee sees when coming to.

Winner: Tully Blanchard to win the NWA World Television
Championship

This was one of those times when a downed referee not seeing
the obvious win worked. But I don’t have to like it. It was a great match
though, with Blanchard acting very sneaky to win from behind. Rhodes showed
great power and charisma. There wasn’t any shortage of energy either. 4/5

It’s kind of hard to call a match like this, both of the
Express lagged in getting up onto the scaffold and once the match started, the
Warriors were all over them. Express was able to recover to try to get the Warriors
to fall. However, the Warriors subverted their attempts. At one point, one of
the Express was simply hanging on to one of the Warriors’ leg. Animal and Eaton
were fighting on the supports at one point and all of them were hanging off of
the underside near the end. Condrey fell first, Eaton second.

Winners: The Road Warriors

This was an interesting match. It was good, but it was a
little slow. This was the first scaffold match I’ve ever seen though, so maybe
it was good in the context of scaffold matches. Other than that, nothing really
wrong with it. 3/5

Koloff started powerfully against Flair, throwing him around
until he left the ring. He remained
strong until Flair was able to back him into the post to chop him and leave
again. Flair kept having sudden spurts, but Koloff held ground until Flair was
able to execute a suplex and turn it over. Koloff eventually found a second
wind and showed his retribution. At the end, both of them pushed the referee out
of their way. It took the entire locker room to break them up.

Double Disqualification; Ric Flair retains

Great match and in this case, the ending of the two throwing
the referee to the side wasn’t forced. It came off as both of them trying to
legitimately settle their score. 4/5
